Hey Rick,
We gladly send you another fitting for your Stealthmode Oil Line kit, but unless you can see somehing wrong with the current fitting, it will probably continue to leak. Do you see a visible problem with the old fitting?
Let us know what you prefer, and we'll take care of it.

Is the fitting suppost to be flush against the turbo?Cus the fitting i have leave like a 1/16 gap between the fitting shouder and the surface of the turbo.I can send u the money for the fitting with no problem i just want to make it stop.Let me know how much including shipping and ill paypal u the money now cus i need the fitting asap.Thanx.
PS: The only problem with the fitting is u cant fit the line good with a hf mani and 14b turbo cus the fitting is staight up and the line is against the manifold.So i end up welding the 45 degree fitting u send me so i can make the line to go out of the way of the manifold.So for future reference for u company i would say to make a fitting to fit the 14b and hf mani since alot of ppl use this set up.Thanx Craig.

Hey Rick,
That I can honestly remember, we've never had a customer report an issue with these fittings in all the years we've been selling the Stealthmode kits. We'll send you the fitting for free, we just ask that you pay shipping if you want it faster than first class rate.
The inverted flare fittings make their seal in the cone shaped area, not in the threads. The fitting should bottom out against a matching cone shaped area in the turbo's oil inlet connection. When you look into the oil inlet port, it should look like the inside of a brake line connection. There should be a cone pointing up at you inside the hole.
We'll send you the fitting, I just want to make sure it's going to fix your problem.
As for the angle of the fitting, have you clocked your turbo so that there is a vertical imaginary line from the oil inlet to oil outlet? You may have to adjust it a little to get the clearance, but I know that it can be done. (We're running a straight fitting on our budget turbo CRX project).
Thanks from Craig

Craig,
The 7/16 fitting for the T25 kit must have been sent by mistake in his 14B kit. The fitting he needs is the M12x1.25. They're the ones going out with your order tomarrow. If you don't have any in stock, please PM me with Ricks info and I'll send one straight out to him. Your order will be 3-5 days to get to you anyhow.
